Tom Devine, Government Accountability Project Legal Director and '80 alum, wrote an editorial in Federal Times advocating for stronger whistleblower protections.

"On May 8, the Senate again unanimously approved a strong form of the
WPEA [Whistleblower Protection Enhancement Act]. But despite unanimous approval last November, the House Oversight
and Government Reform Committee has not reported the corresponding bill
to the full House.The House should proceed without delay."
